foreign policy, i will say, was a disaster for joe biden. and jo use that word lightly pap talk about embarrassing. martha raddatz had to tell him, you're acting like iran doesn't want a nuclear weapon. he was so -- by the way, laughing through that segment was totally inappropriate. and also had a lot of falsehoods in thinks foreign policy statement that folks like ezra klein and politico have pointed out on libya, that was not a good moment for someone who's supposed to be very good on foreign policy. that said, what conservatives wanted from paul ryan was for him to wipe the floor with jsh jb. that did not happen. he did not demolish joe with his wonky brilliance. paul ryan gave a very good, solid debate performance. nothing for conservatives to complain about. but it wasn't the sort of knockout that they wanted. in fact, if joe biden hadn't been there acting a little crazy, paul ryan's delivery would have been a little flat. he only looked poised because joe biden was so animated. >> yes. i think biden to me, the main takeaway from biden

he said foreign policy is an economic policy. he was a governor who didn't know much about foreign policy either, and that was the way he finessed it. he said it's a real concern out there in america, people talk about it all the time. romney started out the campaign as raising china as a domestic threat. it's an area where he may find some profit in foreign policy. but going to war all the time, i think people are kind of sick of that. >> thank you very much for joining me tonight. >>> coming up, mitt romney is getting a lot of advice on who to pick and not pick for hiss running mate. why joe scarborough says romney needs to stay away from marco rubio. and one of the republican candidates wants to rewrite one of his most memorable answers in the debate. it was the single stupidest thing that this individual did in the entire campaign, that's coming up. i went to a small high school. the teacher that comes to mind for me is my high school math teacher, dr. gilmore. i mean he could teach. he was there for us, even if we needed him

. >> that was clear when he talked about foreign policy. we want to talk about troops in afghanistan. >> you would rather americans -- >> we are already sending americans to do the job, but fewer of them. >> that's right, we are sending in more afghans to do the job. >> you said this was a really telling moment for the congressman. >> well, it was, because i think unfortunately for paul ryan or fortunately, if you take the other position, is strength is not foreign policy, but he chose to engage the vice president on the subject. and he drew the line in the sand, forgive the pun, saying we had a failed policy of chasing, or engaging afghanistan and not supporting the troops. the vice president's reaction was, we are trying to get the government and its own troops to provide for security as we draw down on our own. he forced the congressman to say that american troops should be put in harm's way instead of afghan troops and defending afghanistan. and at that moment, i think ryan realized he was saying the wrong thing and i think it was exemp

president obama has a good foreign policy record to run on. bin laden is dead, our troops are out of iraq, we have a date certain to pull troops out of afghanistan, the president proved himself on foreign policy in the 2008 debate and he's going to have to do it again tomorrow night. i'm joined by michelle goldberg, writer nor "newsweek" and also howard fineman, great to have both of you with us tonight. howard, will secretary of state hillary clinton's comments help the president in any way? >> no, they will not. as a matter of fact, having hillary clinton step up and take full responsibility, whatever that precisely means, just makes it look more political. certainly in the eyes of republicans. and will be considered fresh meat for the republicans to go after. you can be sure that mitt romney will go after it as hard as he can, as fast as he can, in part because his people love it. because they can try to make it a question of character and because joe biden gave them an opening last week by saying that the white house and he and the preside
